Tutorial UPCYCLED: Baby Overalls and Women’s Shirt into Toddler Dress

I have been wanting to try out this project for a while and finally got around to it.

Lil’Miss had these bum overalls that never stayed snapped. I decided rather than pass on a bad pair of overalls to someone else or throwing them out, I would made a new outfit.

Originally I wanted to use these two children’s shirts. It turns out that the diameter was only slightly larger than the overalls so I wasn’t able to gather the fabric. I decided to sew it together and give it a shot anyhow.

I wasn’t pleased with the results. So I dug up another shirt that I no longer wanted.

I used a women’s baby doll t-shirt and cut it off right below the bust.

As you can see it turned my non-functional overalls to a cute toddler dress.

Adorable (oh, the outfit is too) ;o). Very good idea – too bad that I don't have any girls to try this out on. I really want to do this. I need to find a way to use old boy's overalls. (They get too short waaaaay too quick.)
